sounds like the 1.0 mm binzle 250/360 amp mig tip job.
strange though as they are £9.75 for pack of 25 from local welding shop, use them in the workshop
the 380/500 amp ones by the way are 8mm

just bought a pack of 5 from the local machine mart, their sizes were limited and bought the industrial ones as they were bigger than the 1mm (0.8 mm though) and the hose would'nt have fitted them. Not fitted them in the brush yet but tried them on some hose and it blasts out at about a 3rd of the flow I was using.
Whether they will clean as well and save water I wont know yet til I've tested on my own windows :-\
